The trees were quiet, the wind was lazy and the smoke from the campfire wound its way slowly up into the starry night sky. Amber red coals under the fires cook pot glowed ominously and reflected flickering shadows upon the tall pines that circled around the hastily made camp.
There by the fire sat a cloaked gnome, his eyes staring into the pot of stew as it bubbled and turned from the heat of the fire blazing below. Lost in thought the Gnome lazily puffed upon his pipe sending tendrils of tobacco smoke into the frosty air. Adger was a Warlock, his path was a lonely one and more often then not he traveled alone. But here on the snow swept slopes of Coldridge Valley Adger felt at peace. This was his home, and although many enemies and beasts lurked in the darkness of the wood Adger knew the power that he now controlled was more then enough to keep him safe.
The continent of Dun Morogh was covered in snowy peaks and deep frostbitten valleys, its bitter winds were a stark contrast to the neighbouring lands in the Eastern Kingdoms. It was here that Adger began his journey as a Warlock, and since then he had traveled many places in the Eastern Kingdoms seeking power and experience in the dark craft that guided his steps. Every so often though Adger felt the need to come home, he took solace in the pine tress that dotted the hills and bordered the frozen lakes...he loved nothing more then smoking his pipe and reflecting on his adventures as a bubbling stew cooked upon his simple fire.
Sadly our Warlocks life was not often like this, while times of peace are a welcomed thing Adger's true love is the heat of battle and the call to travel the lands...to study its mysteries and to unlock its dark secrets. Adger is ambitous in the dark arts, his power in Demonology, Affliction, and Destruction grow every day and his eyes are always set ahead on future prospects of bringing him that one step closer to being a master Warlock...the most powerful Gnome to walk the face of Azeroth!
But for tonite join the fire, enjoy a pipe, and share some of Adger's stew, for times of rest are few and far between in this Gnomes life.
